<p>
Mirage+ is a Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) system which provides memory
management and communication across machines in a loosely coupled network
environment.  The system hides network
boundaries to processes accessing shared memory, providing the
illusion of a coarse grained multiprocessor to the programmer and
algorithm designer.  Mirage+ is designed to execute traditional System
V Posix-compliant shared memory programs on commodity personal
computers.  
<p>
A key feature in Mirage+ is the simplicity with which powerful networking
can be employed using solutions that have been designed for
uniprocessors and applied to a more powerful network of
workstations platform.  Mirage+ implements DSM using a paged
segmentation scheme where segments are partitioned into pages. The system 
runs on a cluster of IBM PS/2 class machines.
<p>
Our lastest work in the DSM area is a non-kernel invasive DSM system
based on the Quarks prototype from Utah.  We are focusing on disconnected 
operation and mobility for Distributed Memory Shared Systems.  The
new research is based on advances and experiences with Mirage+. We have also 
constructed the Riverside Mobile DSM Suite which are a set of
application programs
that exercise functionality in mobile systems that one would expect to
want to implement using DSM.  In addition, our group also authored the  
DSM port of Quarks to the DEC Alpha AXP 150 personal computers and made the
results of the port accessible to other researchers.
